Think that ship might have sailed…and sunk!

Ah, thank you Blossomtoes; if the BBC have reported correctly then that answers my question

On an ordinary human level I'm still surprised the royal statement didn't include the words, but as said this isn't my thing so guess I wouldn't appreciate all the nuances

Great insights, @MalagaNights

I think helicopter pilot and Apache helicopter pilot are quite a bit different, though. I doubt Fergie was carrying out low level manoeuvres in simulated terrorists attacks during her test.

Even though Harry is behaving like a grade 1 tosser, can't we credit him with a good achievement? Most of us would be rightfully proud if our child achieved something similar.

🤣🤣Gosh, that's conjured up quite the picture in my head!

The Royal Family is powerful in the UK, not outside of it. If they are so powerful ask them to stop the power train across the world that is running all over them, shouting for them to be held account for past sins.

Are they powerful in the US, Canada, China, the Commonwealth? Where is this power? People have more dirt on them than they have on others. They are not the richest. So what is this power? If they had so much power, they would not be so afraid of the BM who have so much power over them.

They are so powerful that they have to rely on suitcases of cash from questionable folks from the Middle East.

They are so powerful that they could not stop Prince Andrew from being dragged before the American public.

You are deluded. Have you not noticed that Empire days are done?

Reality will kick in one day soon. The aftermath of the cost of living crisis that the powerful Royal Family can’t even help with, will tell us all we need to know of mighty Britain and its Royal Family’s power.

Maybe Rome can remind us of the eternity of its powerful emperors. Eventually all this nonsense is gotten rid of by sensible modern minds.

Do you do stand up too?

I giggled at the image.

Erm, OK.

He’s going to make a prime prick of himself in this interview

The anti-Harry and Meghan crowd exists in an echo chamber devoid of the reality around them. Harry and Meghan are winning the global hearts and they don’t care that the BM is against them. The Royal Family and the BM can enjoy the little battles they think they are winning. Why would Meghan and Harry try to woo the BM and it’s followers when they already know it’s a lost cause.

Meghan and Harry are playing a bigger game - the people’s prince and princess and they are winning.

When the Royal Family supporters are painted as those who at the same time are Trump loving, right-wing, Deep South racists, then the Royal Family’s image is just going down the pan. Across the globe the Royal Family has an image problem and no one has forgotten what they did to Diana. Queen Consort Camilla’s presence makes this even worse.

Thanks also to Jeremy Clarkson and Camilla chumminess with him and his kind, the Royal Family is just looking stupider and stupider outside of Britain.

Even China is now making a mockery of us.

Someone’s certainly had their weetabix

No actual human writes like this. It's an AI program.

Odd analogy for a self-proclaimed Brit…

Well, they could do with investing in a Thesaurus, for a start.

"Power/powerful" used 13 times in the one post.

That word salad reminds me of something. Or someone.

Re Harry’s latest sob story - as ever, Shakespeare said it best.

It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing

Apparently a quick Google will tell you that;

The UK is believed to be the 2nd most powerful nation on earth, findings based on several categories, including military capacity (hard power) and various factors such as economic, political, scientific and cultural influence (soft power)

USA comes first.

I think though it's mainly our NATO and UN Security council seats, as well as our overall global reach. Whilst we may not have a high GDP that doesn't always mean "power and influence". Places like Luxembourg are actually richer than us by capita, but nobody is calling on them for allied support.

And as much as many hate it as they don't want a monarchy (which is fair enough everyone is entitled to an opinion and it should be respected) The constitutional monarch is the figure head of that power. Hence why state banquets at the palace take place. Hence why nearly every world leader turned up for the state funeral of HMTQ.

It is what it is....

I mean we look great on paper anyway 🤣

Deep South?!?
What like Portsmouth or Southampton?

Even China is now making a mockery of us.

Another China reference! Why are we supposed to care what China think of us? They’re currently carrying out an actual modern day genocide of their own. Can someone explain?
